Men can't give birth, for instance and women generally can't carry loads as large as men. <BR/><BR/>I think that this is turning out to be the point in my blog: that there's a problem in the frum community with respect towards women, especially single women.AmIaFrumFeministhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09336007889420058137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3039321608208914582.post-28298960427534831702008-02-01T01:43:00.000-08:002008-02-01T01:43:00.000-08:00Frumfem,I am so proud of you to stand up to that j...Frumfem,<BR/><BR/>I am so proud of you to stand up to that jerk. I can't believe he mentioned that you should be appreciative that he didn't walk away from what he did and not have to pay or owe you anything simple because he is a frum man, and you are a single frum female. <BR/><BR/>I mean, I know I am outraged by this more than you maybe because I am an outsider looking in on the frum community, but all this about women not having authority because they do not have a husband to act as a stronger authoritative figure just drives me nuts. <BR/><BR/>And, im sure you could have guessed that I believe that a woman can definitely do anything a man can do, and of course without a doubt deserves the same respect as any man. Maybe that concept is altered or skewed depending what environment you grew up in, but that just seems like it should be an unspoken rule in the law of human curtesy. <BR/><BR/>If a man thinks he can get away with not paying you the appropriate amount of money he owes you when HE damaged your car, or have the gal to tell you to be appreciative he didnt just walk away because you are a woman, or even tell you rude comments to send you on the guilt trip....then there is a serious inequality issue and anti-female cultural constructions going on in the frum community. I hope it changes soon, and the community as a whole open their eyes and put a stop to this sexist behavior, because it is definitely a serious issue. <BR/><BR/>Your Feminist Friend,<BR/>RachelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
